Summary
Doni joined the Department of Materials in February 2006 and is currently working as a research fellow. After gaining a Ph.D. from Anna University on sol-gel processing of oxide ceramics and composites, he held various positions in Japan and UK. He got Monbusho Fellowship by the Govt of Japan to carry out part of his Ph.D. programme in the Dept of Materials Science and Engineering, Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan. He has been awarded STA post doctoral fellowship by the Govt of Japan to pursue his research on porous materials for high temperature applications at National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Nagoya, Japan and subsequently, joined the same group as research scientist. He has been awarded Young Asian Scientist presentation award by the Ceramic Society of Japan in 2002.
His research interests include: ceramics processing (wet chemical processing, molten salt synthesis, reactive processing and self propagating high temperature synthesis); oxide and non-oxide ceramics (glass ceramics, MAX phase materials, ultra high temperature ceramics, ceramic matrix composites), porous materials (for high temperature applications including DPFs); environmental barrier coatings for CMCs; joning of materials (glass-metals, metal-ceramics and ceramics-ceramics); surface analysis (SIMS) and microstructures (SEM, FIB, TEM).
Doni has 18 patents and published over 82 peer-reviewed papers in above mentioned research. He presented over 50 papers in conferences including invited talks. He is also acting as a reviewer in many reputed journals.
